I have a Moto X Dev Ed 2013 and I recently got a set of the original Moto Skip (clip and 3 dots). I was hoping to not only unlock, but also kick in car mode (for the generic car dock)
The initial setup is done, completely painless. The clip paired, as did one of the dots.
I've also noticed that regular NFC reader apps do NOT read Skip clip or skip dots. I've found that this is because Moto customized the kernel to intercept Skip NFC reads and eats the event completely. Understandable, but somewhat disappointing since this prevents the dots from **any** use other than unlock.
But I still have two dots left. The problem is, when I tried to read them with regular NFC reader apps, Skip setup kicks in and asks if I want to add them to the tag list.
Which sort of begs the questions
1) Can I use the UNUSED Skip Dots for anything else? Or are they tied to Moto Skip duty ONLY?
2) If I get some other "generic" NFC stickers or whatever, will they suffer the same fate?
